[Dublin] Exploring the Art of Emergence - Half-Day Nature Workshop in Phoenix Park

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." - Anais Nin

As we cross over the threshold of Imbolc (translates as "in the belly"), as winter begins to loosen its grip and the earth begins to stir we will come together to explore what is stirring within us. As the Cailleach's reign on the land weakens and Brigid returns, we will slow down, connect to the rhythm of our animal bodies with embodiment practice, and spend time alone in the natural world to listen to what is calling to emerge.

Do you feel a quickening within you?

Are you feeling ready to begin to be roused from the winter dreaming to see what wishes to be manifested?

What can you do to revive and nourish your body and soul as you tend to the seeds within you?

What seeds that you have been tending or forgetting are beginning to germinate or not, knowing not every seed sends roots)?

Slowly, slowly we will explore this gentle nudge towards emergence and desire, knowing that these seeds that are beginning to emerge are still fragile, tender and vulnerable. Let us tap into the sense of awe and wonder that this potential brings. Let us come together share our emergent stories and sew ourselves into relationship with the beauty and power of the lands way of growing, recovering, resting and dying all for continued life.
